Eutechnyx has announced just recently that they are collaborating with Japanese company Crooz Inc. to release a free-to-play racing game, Acr Drift, for iOS later this month. Rooted in the style of Eutechnyx‘s own free-to-play racer, Auto Club Revolution, Acr Drift introduces a more accessible style of racing and drifting, developed specifically for iOS devices with real-time multiplayer support coming soon after launch. The game will feature more than 50 supercars from 17 manufacturers, detailed graphics, and over 20 street courses in real-world locations. These locations include Moscow, Hong Kong, Las Vegas, Los Angeles as well as Italy in the single-player Story mode. With Acr Drift being free-to-play, there are optional in-app purchases that allow fine-tuning and customization options for each vehicle. As for the online multiplayer mode, that is currently set to release sometime in March of this year.

“With the upcoming international release of Acr Drift, Auto Club Revolution is ready to take its place as a true franchise in the fast-paced world of competitive auto racing games,” remarked Eutechnyx CEO Darren Jobling. “By partnering with CROOZ, Inc., we’re able to vastly broaden the reach and appeal of the Auto Club Revolution brand, creating fresh gameplay experiences specifically tailored to new platforms and new markets.”

For that that are interested, we’ve also got a big gallery of screenshots available on Imgur. It’s also important to take note that Acr Drift is currently available on the Australian App Store, most likely as a “soft launch” to test things out and get feedback from players before the worldwide release. We are told that the developers will announce the official release date here soon, so we’ll be on the lookout for that as well.
